My error. I thought I saw it and I must have confused it with another LN.

While we're at this, I'll throw in a summary written by raptorfalcon (all credits go to him. He wrote 98% of this. I just corrected a naming error). I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Spoiler for Crimson Prince vs. Tatsuya:

"Because of all the “accidents” Tatsuya asked Haruka, the school counselor in charge of their class to research where the base of the “No Head Dragon” was. She asked him why and he answered it was just insurance…to calm his mind by knowing where he would need to attack if it became necessary. It hasn’t been said before, but she is actually a “secret agent” from the public safety department working undercover in the school. She has also received Yakumo’s ninjutsu training (much less than Tatsuya). Since Yakumo would reveal her secret identity to Tatsuya, but would not reveal his to her, she more or less understands Tatsuya is above her in the “power/authority chain” to the point that she even served as a carrier for him
Haruka brought Tatsuya 1 coat and 1 mantle that were later found out to have some magic circles in the fabric to boost the magician’s ability. The student council wasn’t sure they were legal in a match, but he had again used loopholes in the rules. Mayumi was really worried about Tatsuya’s wellbeing and explained to him that he had already fulfilled his duty. By advancing to the semifinals, he had already gathered enough points as a whole for the school to win the points in the “new comer” division. He really didn’t intend to win at this point, he just wanted it to finish without getting injured so that his “self-healing” ability wouldn’t trigger in front of a crowd. However, as he was leaving Miyuki approached him and told him that even though she knew he couldn’t use most of his power in the match, and even though she knows she is part of the reason why he can’t use his power (no details given as to how exactly she limits his power), she still believes he will win. After that, losing was no longer an option for Tatsuya.

And so... on the day of the match, Leo and Mikihiko showed up on the stage wearing one of the clothes each. While most of the crowd was interested in how the clothes worked, Erika was just laughing her ass off. After calming down, Mitsuki told her that she wasn’t sure how the clothes worked, but a lot of “spirits” where gathering round Mikihiko. By the way I should mention that Mitsuki has been little by little gathering the courage to remove her glasses (good for her… not so much for Tatsuya). As soon as the match started, the crowd went , “OHHH!”. The reason was that even though both team bases were hundreds of meters apart and normally only reachable with a long range type CAD, Tatsuya and Masaki were already attacking each other accurately. Masaki kept using his “explosion” magic modified with the “cylinder” magic I explained previously. Tatsuya had 1 gun CAD with the “magic demolition” spell and the other had a vibration spell. From the very beginning, Tatsuya’s goal was to get in Masaki’s close range so he kept advancing towards him while destroying Masaki’s explosions before they even happened. Cardinal noticed the magic on the 2nd gun was different and was really surprised Tatsuya had been able to change the magic+tune a CAD within such a short time. A lot of important people had come to see this match specifically because of Tatsuya’s magic. Magicians can see psions and to them the spectacle that takes place every time Tatsuya blew away Masaki’s spell was like a fireworks show. On top of that, it’s very difficult to see this magic in action since most magicians can’t use that magic at all, and even those who can are limited to 1 shot a day. To see a high school student use it continuously was very surprising. Among those that went to see the show was Kudo, the advisor of the country’s magic defense department. He used to be considered one of the top magicians in the world when he was in active duty (now an old man but still holds great respect+power). As Tatsuya got closer to Masaki, it became more difficult to predict and cancel the magics before they activated, so Tasuya had to start using his body to dodge them as well. While that was going on, Cardinal had gotten close to school 1’s base and was in battle with Mikihiko and Leo. Cardinal managed to land his spell on Mikihiko and he fell to the ground as if someone was pressing his chest against the floor. Just as Leo was about to land his attack on Cardinal, he suddenly went flying and got knocked unconscious thanks to Masaki’s intervention. However, that small distraction was used by Tatsuya to finally close the gap with Masaki and get into close combat. At that moment, Masaki felt immense fear; like his instinct was telling him the person in front of him was too dangerous. In the middle of his panic Masaki released 16 attacks with each having more power than the rules allowed. It was explained at this point that depending on the magician, each spell has a level of “strength” and that in order to blast away even 1 of Masaki’s spells required more energy than most magicians could gather in an entire day. Even then, Tatsuya stuck to his word of not using his “disintegration” magic and managed to blow away 14 of them. Just after firing the spells, Masaki had noticed he had used too much power and when the 2 shots hit Tatsuya he knew he would be disqualified for over attacking. However, in that fraction of a second while he was thinking about that, Tatsuya’s regeneration kicked in and brought his conscience back (he had received enough damage to break few bones and bleed severely) Before Tatsuya even noticed he had been knocked out, he was already conscious and healed while Masaki was still a bit shocked from using too much power. Tatsuya took advantage of that, got close to him and launched a punch which Masaki instinctively dodged. As soon as his hand was near Masaki’s ear, he flicked his fingers and a big BOOOMMM was heard in the stadium. Masaki fell to the floor unconscious and Tatsuya fell to his knees."

100% written by raptorfalcon. It was done well enough that if I wrote another one, it would be a waste of energy and.... the quality of mines would at best be the same. I guess I need to mention that there were 3 other Monolith Code rounds that Tatsuya swept through before meeting the Crimson Prince and Cardinal George. I kind of skipped right to the Finals.

any spoilers after the battle of Crimson Prince vs. Tatsuya? are there any VIP who knows of Tatsuya's Identity?...

As a matter of fact there is. Again, raptorfalcon already wrote a thorough one, so all credits go to him.

Spoiler for Monolith Code Finals Conclusion:

"At the place where the student council was viewing the match, Mayumi, whose face had turned pale when she saw Tatsuya get hit by the spells and get injured, was freaking out and asking those around her what just had happened. Katsuto told her that Tatsuya had just amplified the sound wave created by flicking his fingers and broken Masaki’s eardrum, thus knocking him unconscious. Mayumi screamed, “I already know that! It’s obvious from looking at his fingers! What I want to know is how come Tatsuya, who should have been severely injured from taking 2 of Masaki’s illegal over attack spells, just got up and continued fighting!” Katsuto told her, “Calm down! Although it looked like that to me as well, the fact is he got up and moved in a way that no heavily injured person could. Right now the only damage he seems to have is from his own sound wave attack. I heard Shiba is good with old magic and ninjutsu, I believe there are techniques in those styles to transfer the shockwave within the body and avoid the damage; it’s probably something like that”. Mayumi calmed down but wasn’t really convinced by that explanation…

On the field, Cardinal couldn’t believe his eyes. The one thing they never thought possible had just happened. Masaki was on the floor and although Tatsuya was on his knees, he was still conscious. The Crimson Prince had just been defeated. The pressure that held Mikihiko to the ground suddenly lifted and he noticed Masaki on the ground. In his mind, he believed Tatsuya could do it, but wasn’t so sure. He started thinking how it had been Tatsuya that got him the “spotlight”. It was also thanks to his tactics that they advanced to this point, and even now he had just taken down the crimson prince. His pride as a magician would not let it all be “thanks to Tatsuya” so he resolved to at the very least defeat “Cardinal George”. While the cardinal was distracted, Mikihiko activated an illusion magic to disappear from their sight. During that time, he prepared 5 spells with the last one being the lightning attack he had used against the terrorists previously. He had already run out of magic and his camouflage had deactivated, but the cardinal had been defeated. Unfortunately, the other player was still pretty healthy and about to send him an attack he no longer had the energy to dodge. Just then, Leo whacked the other player with his “sword” and officially ended the match. Tatsuya approached them and joked about Leo taking the spotlight by showing up at the last minute, and wondered if he had aimed for it. Leo just denied it and explained the blast from Masaki’s magic felt like when he got hit in an accident a few years back (I think it was a big motorcycle but can’t remember) and he really couldn’t get up before. Mikihiko couldn’t believe Leo and Tatsuya were talking about that kind of damage as if it was nothing and realized that in the end what won the match had not been magic, but physical toughness… which he lacked.

In the regular seats of the stadium, 2 of Tatsuya’s special military squad members had been watching the match. Not sure if I mentioned it before, but a few of them were also staying at the hotel due to the “No Head Dragon” incident. The reason for them being there was to make sure Tatsuya didn’t reveal any of his secret magic during the match. The 2 members, a woman about the same age as Haruka (the counselor) and a doctor (he’s an officer) were discussing how he only used his “self-healing” magic when the speed was faster than human consciousness (as I said before the more damage, the faster it works) and only used “Flash Casting” once. To top it off, he had changed the magic on one of the CAD’s to a vibration magic so he could camouflage this spell when he used it. The doctor tried to make a point out of him using his healing magic but the woman (sorry, forgot her name) glared at him hard enough for him to give up. At that point they also talked about what would happen if he had used restricted magic. If he had, in order to prevent access to him from other countries, they would have had to “protect” him. Obviously this would restrict his freedom and lead to a conflict with him. Considering that they could only think of 1 other member that could possibly match his casting speed (that member seems to have a similar technique), that was something they were really glad didn’t happen.

After the match, Tatsuya received medical help for his eardrum but it would take some time for it to heal. Back in his room, he activated his self-healing to heal it but decided to leave the bandages and pretend he was still injured to finally get a break from the whole thing..."

Spoiler for VIP members:

His master obviously knows, certain members of the military know since Tatsuya fights for them, and Kudo (mentioned in the previous section) knows. Kudo knows because he is the master/former instructor of the current head of the Four family. In the Yokohama Wars (Web 3), the student council and a few members of the school know Tatsuya's military identity, but not his true killing ability (e.g. Material Burst).

As a matter of fact there is. Again, raptorfalcon already wrote a thorough one, so all credits go to him.
